PHP 5.1 Beta 1 View as Markdown

I'd like to roll PHP 5.1 Beta 1 very soon.
Wez, I've been waiting for PDO in order to get this going. Do you feel
it's mature enough or should I hold off some more time?

Well if someone can help me get sqlstate working in pdo_pgsql I'd be
happy with a release. At the moment it's just silly that it's not done.
However, I'm finding the PDO code a bit of a nightmare so I cannot
propagate the sqlstates in all cases...

Maybe could I send someone my patch so far?

Chris

I would like first to see some bugs closed, like:

• #30641 - PHP 5.1 doesn't compile on Solaris 9
• #31725 - PHP is always segfaulting when using sqlite
• upgrade sqlite and PCRE libraries

Thanks,
Nuno

 Maybe we should first get all the tests pass before rolling
 any kind of release? Here's the list of currently failing tests:

Jani,

We're talking beta (I don't mind calling it alpha either) to get PDO and
the new engine architecture tested by more people.
It doesn't mean all tests need to pass. Don't worry, bugs will be addressed
before a 5.1 release which is still very far off. But don't expect the
whole bugs.php.net DB to clean out either.

Before we go beta, I'd like to see php_check_syntax() disappear (as it
seems it will never be "fixed").

It's had function table problems since its inception (IIRC, it runs
php_lint_script -- but php_lint_script was never designed to clean up
after itself; the process was supposed to terminate after a php -l)

I spoke with Ilia (and Rasmus) a few nights ago, and they agreed that it
would be best to get rid of php_check_syntax() altogether (it would take
too much effort to fix, and we already have a mechanism for syntax
checking (php -l)).

Anyway, if we're going Alpha, this isn't an issue, yet -- if we're going
Beta, then I'd like to see it removed.

I'll go Alpha. I'll try and roll towards the end of next week.
I agree with Ilia and Rasmus and suggest to nuke it.

Can we get some things straight first (i guess that's the idea of an alpha).
I'd like to reintroduce __toString() since 5.1 is supposed to make it work
again. The patching should be easy enough since we left in most of the
necessary code as we planned to reintroduce it in the first place.

Then i think we need to enable return by reference in c functions to get
array overloading fixed. For thta you have a patch from me. As you have for
several other things :-)

However most important seems to be fixing return by reference. Derick and me
already did a lot of analysis, weeks of and and. Maybe you want to help.

marcus

What about the ability to declare type-hinted parameters as optional?

Hey Andi,

I've been a busy with work (and house hunting), so I've been a bit out of it.
Let me catch up and take stock on PDO again; I'd like to push a PECL
release of the various packages this weekend, before we go with Beta

I can't think of any show-stoppers in PDO right now, so the time to
Beta 1 should/can be sort.

OK so keep me posted in the beginning of next week.
I'll also look at some of the other mentioned issues.
